Chapter 541 Her Preferences
Huo Yanmo did not answer immediately, but looked at Shi Nian in the wheelchair.
Lu Yanzhi also looked at Shi Nian.
It all depends on her decision.
"Okay," Shi Nian finally said.
After discussing the details for a while, Shi Nian was pushed out by Huo Yanmo.
Lu Yanzhi, left in the office, quietly watched them leave.
He had many impulses and many thoughts in his heart.
He could barely suppress the urge to throw Huo Yanmo aside and take his place.
But he was very clear-headed.
She doesn't like it.
Many things that happened a year ago have made him realize that forcing her will only hurt her.
When he saw her lying in the hospital bed, her life hanging in the balance, he understood.
Only after the two figures disappeared around the corner did Lu Yanzhi turn his gaze away.
Perhaps the three of them will maintain this delicate balance throughout their lives.
And this...
Lu Yanzhi lowered his eyes slightly.
For him, this was already a stroke of luck.
While waiting for the elevator in the corridor, Shi Nian looked out the window.
Outside the window, the sky was a clear blue, with no clouds in sight.
The next moment, Huo Yanmo grasped her hand.
Shi Nian looked up and saw his gentle eyes.
She slightly raised the corners of her mouth and squeezed his hand back.
...
The three of them had lunch at the restaurant chosen by Lu Yanzhi.
There was no deliberate attempt to conceal it.
When the three of them appeared at the restaurant entrance with their secretary, everyone who saw them was utterly astonished.
What kind of combination is this?
Am I going blind? Am I hallucinating?
"What are they doing? How can they eat together like this?"
...
Love triangles are often a hot topic of gossip, especially since all three are prominent figures in City A.
The crowd buzzed with discussion, eager to know the details.
However, apart from the brief moment when the waiter went in to serve the food, the three of them ate their meal in the private room.
The waiter, constantly being questioned by the crowd, was also at a loss.
"It was just a normal meal," the waiter said. "There was no hush money involved. Huo Yanmo and Shi Nian sat together, and Lu Yanzhi sat opposite them. It was perfectly normal, nothing strange at all."
That's true.
Lu Yan stopped at things that Shi Nian had done for him before.
Over the years they've been together, he's never really paid much attention to what she particularly likes to eat.
However, after Huo Yanmo took the menu, he changed the dishes on the ordering screen.
“She’s currently undergoing reconstruction, so she can’t eat many things,” Huo Yanmo told Lu Yanzhi.
Lu Yanzhi glanced at Shi Nian and nodded.
His gaze fell on Shi Nian's legs, and he asked, "What did the doctor say? Can she recover to her former state?"
"Yes." Shi Nian nodded. "You'll be able to stand up slowly, but it will take several months to fully recover. You'll also need to pay more attention to your daily life afterwards."
Lu Yanzhi nodded: "That's good."
As the dishes were served one by one, Huo Yanmo skillfully arranged them for her. Lu Yanzhi clenched her fist, but that was all.
Lu Yanzhi looked down at his bowl.
So that's how they got along.
When he was with her, she was always the one making concessions to him.
The meal was finished quickly.
Nothing unusual happened; I just ate a normal meal.
When the dinner party ended, Lu Yanzhi went out for a while.
Huo Yanmo patted Shi Nian on the shoulder.
Shi Nian understood and nodded.
Lu Yanzhi and Huo Yanmo met in a private room not far away.
The onlookers still don't know what they talked about.
All that is known is that when they came out together and returned to the door of the private room, Huo Yanmo said something to Lu Yanzhi.
Because of the distance, I could only vaguely hear two words – “sweets”.
After a while, Huo Yanmo pushed Shi Nian out.
Lu Yanzhi was left alone in the private room.
When Zhou Zhiyu came in, she saw Lu Yanzhi staring at the plate on the side, seemingly lost in thought.
"President Lu?" Zhou Zhiyu tried to speak.
Lu Yanzhi then raised his head and looked at Zhou Zhiyu.
"Write down today's menu," Lu Yanzhi said.
Zhou Zhiyu nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Also, compile and organize information on various desserts from home and abroad, and then send it to me," Lu Yanzhi continued.
Zhou Zhiyu was somewhat surprised, but he didn't ask any further questions and immediately ordered his subordinates to do it.
...
When Shi Nian was sent back to Yi Shi by Huo Yanmo, she also saw the online discussions.
She gave Huo Yanmo a strange look.
"What did you say to him?" Shi Nian asked curiously.
Huo Yanmo raised an eyebrow, closed the office door, and said, "I noticed he didn't know what you liked to eat, so I told him that you like sweets, especially the one downstairs from Huo's, which you and Sisi both like."
Shi Nian glared at him.
However... she does like it.
Huo Yanmo smiled, sat down next to her, and said, "I still remember the scene when I saw you downstairs the first time you went to Huo's."
Shi Nian looked at him curiously.
Huo Yanmo found it amusing and reached out to poke her cheek.
"Back then, the shop had just baked bread, and when you were talking to me, your eyes kept looking over there." Huo Yanmo found it amusing when he thought about it.
"Later, I watched for a while and found that you had indeed gone to that store and bought a lot of small desserts. You seemed quite happy, so I knew."
What Huo Yanmo didn't say was that he was overjoyed to have discovered her little hobby.
He later tried all the desserts in that shop, selected a few that he thought tasted good, and would bring them back with him each time. She liked them all very much.
Later, he discovered more of her little quirks.
For example, they like to peel shrimp together, and they must peel them fresh before eating them, and they especially like to eat them skewered.
She likes sunny days, she likes her office with large floor-to-ceiling windows, and she likes to look at the blue sky when she gets tired of working.
She doesn't like beds that are too soft, and she prefers to elevate her head slightly when sleeping.
Various kinds.
He gradually discovered many of her habits and preferences, finding the process quite interesting.
And he enjoyed it.
Huo Yanmo started to laugh as he thought about it.
Shi Nian saw that he was still poking her face, so she reached out and pulled his face back.
Then Huo Yanmo poked him again, and she pulled on his cheek, stretching it outwards.
The two of them inexplicably started competing with each other.
It's like how we inexplicably started having a breath-holding contest before.
This was the scene that Xiaoyu saw when she knocked on the door and came in.
They were all stunned.
"Sorry, I... I'll go out first." Xiaoyu immediately turned around and left, closing the door behind her.
When she came out, Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
People walking by looked at her with confusion.
A little while later, Huo Yanmo also came out, and he glanced at Xiaoyu.
"I'm going back now," Huo Yanmo said.
"Okay, Mr. Huo," Xiaoyu said, suppressing a smile.
